Dual SHA-1/SHA-2 code-signing on legacy Windows operating systems...

[NewsArchive]

All,

Today, I had 14 SHA-1/SHA-2 dual code-signing support requests in my Inbox.
At least 7 developers tried dual code-signing on their Windows XP machines,
3 developers were using Windows 7, one developer was still on SetupBuilder
8.

To use your SHA-2 based code-signing certificate for dual SHA-1/SHA-2
signing you need:

1. SetupBuilder 10.

2. Windows 8.x or Windows 10.

3. SignTool.exe version 6.2.9200.16384 or later.

You can use the following tool to install SignTool 10.0.10240.16384:

Note: I tested SignTool 10.0.10240.16384 on Windows 8.0 and it worked fine
(see attached screenshot).

4. Microsoft Capicom installed and registered.

Quick side note: Windows Server 2008 R2 also causes dual SHA-1/SHA-2
code-signing trouble! Windows Server 2012 R2 works fine out of the box.

So what you need is:

1. SetupBuilder 10.
2a. Windows 8.x or Windows 10 -or-
2b. Windows Server 2012 R2 or Windows Server 2016.
3. SignTool.exe version 6.2.9200.16384 or later.
4. Microsoft Capicom installed and registered.
